Ghost Sites Cleaned up by Google

Google realizes many unwanted sites exist (ghost) in the search engine. They also started to clean it up. "Now there will be a way to find sites that you really want in the Google search results, that is by blocking sites that do not want to see," says the Google staff who dealt with the quality of search results, Amay Champaneria and Beverly Yang.

According to the explanation of both the staff of Google, the internet users who use search engines have the option to tell Google which sites do not want to appear on a subsequent search. "Maybe the results will not always correct but sometimes do not taste like it comes from a common, either because the site is considered too offensive, pornographic, or have poor quality," said Amay.

"For the time being we allow you to make certain domain block from the search results in the future," added Beverly. Therefore, Google has added a button 'block' to the options listed with links of search results. Blocked Domains is associated with a Google account user. The next search will produce sites that do not want to display a message indicating they had been blocked.

"We added this feature because we believe in giving you control over the results you find will provide a more personalized experience and fun at Google, 'says the Google staff.

Smartphone Lower Productivity

One of the advantages of smartphones, is the ability that can make mobile work done wherever and whenever. However, a study says the device that constantly deliver mail outside office hours do not make someone more productive, that's just wasting one's spare time Research conducted by Ian Price compile data from more than 500 workers with their work experience managing emails, both with and without a BlackBerry. The result is users who are used to connect with email, outside the office just is not productive.

"This is the first study that focuses on technologies such as BlackBerry, where the user is always connected to the internet. The consequences that want to get is, a balanced life, durability and productivity. But it is hard to find," said Ian. "BlackBerry users an average of 2.5 times to see the email every hour. In fact, when they were in office, they are not or less see their email. Because usually workers who worked in the office, only has 13 percent of the total existing email," he said. Though not all the email they see associated with the job. For this reason, sometimes see the email that is not necessary, into something redundant.

Ancient Skull Found in Lake Hoyo Negro

Scientists found ancient human skull in the bottom of the lake region of Mexico. This finding was possible to support the hypothesis Solutrean theory. Solutrean hypothesis which states that the first humans who lived in the North American continent migrated from Europe and not from the Bering Canal.

National Geographics reported that the invention is located on a site with a depth of 610 meters below sea level, called Hoyo Negro in Spanish which means 'black hole', located within the cave system Aktun Hu, the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. Diver Alex Alvarez, Alberto Franco Attolini and Nava are the ones who do the research.

The team also found a big star and mastodon bones at the bottom of the lake with a depth of 60 meters, which certainly requires further research. "Area of Hoyo Negro size is difficult to understand. As soon as you enter the place, you can not see the bottom," said Franco. Then, at a depth of 43 meters, the team found a human skull.

"This study is great because it could find some animals from the Pleistocene. But by finding a human skull is very unusual for us," said Alex, who called the findings as the 'Holy Grail of cave exploration. Guillermo de you, an archaeologist from the University of Yucatan, says that the skull looks like from the era of  pre-virtual. However, You do not say whether the skeletal structure has a characteristic of Europe or the Bering. The researchers believe that the area was once a dry area, which has been submerged in water, when the ice age ended.

IBM Wins Jeopardy Quiz

IBM computing machine named 'Watson' has competed in a quiz show popular in the United States, Jeopardy! against the two most popular contestants, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. The match is the first man versus machine has been aired in mid-February at a local television station. Watson computing machine, named after the founder of IBM, Thomas J. Watson, built by a team of IBM scientists who are determined to achieve something extraordinary, to build a computing system that can emulate the human ability to answer questions posed in natural language with a fast, precise and convincing.

The format of Jeopardy! offer a real challenge because the instructions in this game requires participants to interpret what is implied, of irony, riddles and other complicated instructions. All this is a man advantage when compared to traditional computers.  Who has competed against Watson are two players Jeopardy! the most famous. Ken Jennings' record-breaking Jeopardy! by following the most consecutive games and won 74 consecutive games during the period 2004-2005. During compete in Jeopardy! he had pocketed the prize more than USD 2.5 million. While Brad Rutter broke the record number of prizes obtained by a player Jeopardy!, With total prizes of USD 3,255 million. This amount is the prize won by Rutter in 2000, plus prizes in three other tournaments.

The main prize in this game is USD 1 million for winning the first, second USD 300,000, and USD 200,000 for the third winner. Rutter and Jennings will donate 50 percent of the prize that they won to charity and IBM will donate the entire prize is won to charity. At the end of this match, Watson emerged as the main winner and won USD 77,147, Ken Jennings came second with USD 24,000, while Brad Rutter as the third winner to reach USD 21,600.

"For four years, our scientific team to develop Watson to be ready to face this challenge with its ability to quickly understand the instructions given in the Jeopardy!, Analyze the information to be accessible, to find the right answer, and answer questions with confidence," said Dr David Ferrucci, the scientist who led the team that created IBM Watson Research.  "Our team is very motivated by the possibilities that can be realized by the computing capability of this incomparable Watson to build a planet that is smarter and help mankind solve employment and improve their quality of life," he said. This spring, Watson played more than 50 training match against the participants Jeopardy Tournament of Champions! as preparation for his first appearance on TV.

In addition, Watson has attended and passed the test potential participants Jeopardy! which is usually followed prospective human participants. This gives confidence to producers Jeopardy! that this match would be attractive and competitive.  In addition to the Jeopardy!, Technology that supports Watson can be adapted to solve various problems and encourage progress in many areas. This computer can find the right information from mountains of data available and answer questions with confidence. This technology can be applied in such fields as health care, by helping to accurately diagnose the patient, improving help desk services online, provide specific information about a city for the tourists and the general public, serving customers via telephone, and others.

Watson is a new breakthrough in science in the ability to Question and Answer, or often called 'Q & A'. Software Power7 Watson uses IBM servers that are optimized to handle various jobs at the same time that Watson should be done at high speed in order to analyze the complicated language and give the right answer on Jeopardy clues!. This system consists of various technologies is closed (proprietary) which handles the command and data processing jobs simultaneously, in addition to analyze information in real-time.

Jeopardy!, Winner of 28 Emmy awards since in 1984, entry in the Guinness Book of World Records for record number of awards won by a TV game show. This event also ranked first in the category of syndicated quiz show with 9 million viewers each day. Jeopardy! produced by Sony Pictures Television, a Sony Pictures Entertainment Company. The event was distributed domestically by CBS Television Distribution and internationally by CBS Television International, both units of CBS Corp.

Some Browsers are Vulnerable to Hacker Attack

As many as 8 out of 10 web browsers were vulnerable to criminals burglarized because rarely updated. Thus the findings of researchers who successfully obtained. Most users claimed to have never committed a basic precautions by installing the patch to find security holes found in the browser. This will indirectly make the browser is vulnerable to attack.

This research was conducted by the Qualys, U.S. security company. This finding is made after the government estimates losses from crime to reach 3.1 billion euros per year.  If not included Plug-ins, security in browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera and Safari, not less vulnerable. Only 25 percent of the browser successfully tested in January and then claimed to have weaknesses that are not patched. This is because the browser is always updated automatically.

But the feature plug-ins, software add-ons that are owned by almost all web browsers for additional features such as video and interactive, was allegedly not very often updated automatically so that makes the user at risk. Plug-in with the target of cyber crime is Oracle's highest, with the percentage of approximately 40 percent of potential hacking. While the Adobe Reader plug-in, which lets users view documents in PDF format in the browser Windows, was second with 32 percent of the potential safety and need to be updated most frequently.

Apple's Quicktime media player plug-ins are third on the level of network security vulnerabilities approximately 25 percent.  In January, the giant networking company Cisco claims that security vulnerabilities occur in the Java software, and it is very profitable for a hacker who can control the browser from the remote prison and allows cyber criminals to steal sensitive data such as bank account information of users.

Cisco also said that Java will remain a potential target of hackers because the users are not too much attention to the importance of patching the Java. Java update itself last patched last October with about 29 issues of vulnerability, called Oracle very critical. Security experts expect the latest generation of browser and website to help solve this problem since the introduction of HTML5 can be interpreted, many of the functions provided by plug-in will work on browsers automatically updated.
